Northern Irish travel agents were treated to a fantastic 'Summer Soiree' hosted by Topflight, the Italian Specialist, to celebrate the launch of their summer Italian programme flying to Verona from Belfast International Airport. The picturesque waterside venue at Cutters Wharf proved to be a very popular choice for the Summer Soiree BBQ. Topflight's theme for summer 2018 is 'We'll help you discover the many sides of Italy' and bearing this in mind agents got to savour the 'Delicious side of Italy'.

With the arrival of a traditional ice cream cart, guests choose from a selection of mouth-watering Italian gelatos which were thoroughly enjoyed by everyone! The only debate was which flavour won out! Live music was provided by the very talented 'Buskerman' whilst typical Topflight hospitality including speciality Italian gins and wonderful Italian wines. A great social evening was enjoyed by all in Belfast!'
